Liquid crystal indicator (Liquid Crystal Display; Abbreviation LCD) the main composition parts in are liquid crystal panels; Liquid crystal panel comprises color membrane substrates and array base palte, and first Polarizer and second Polarizer etc. are provided with liquid crystal layer between said color membrane substrates and the array base palte.Between array base palte and/or color membrane substrates, electrode can be provided with,, the optical property of liquid crystal can be determined through the structure setting of electrode because liquid crystal itself is exactly an anisotropic material.When between electrode not making alive (be voltage be zero) time, liquid crystal molecule lies low in the direction parallel with the plate face of this liquid crystal panel, and this moment, the long axis direction of liquid crystal molecule was parallel with the plate face direction of this liquid crystal panel; When on electrode, applying voltage; Liquid crystal molecule begins " standing up "; Be that the long axis direction of liquid crystal molecule and the plate face direction of liquid crystal panel begin to tilt, along with the increase of liquid crystal layer voltage, liquid crystal molecule begins rotation; When voltage was enough big, liquid crystal molecule can rotate to the direction vertical with the plate face of this liquid crystal panel.Promptly under the pressurization situation, liquid crystal molecule is in the different angle of the driving deflect of voltage, can be so that the light that is arranged in the backlight of liquid crystal panel rear side see through liquid crystal, and be radiated on the screen and form image.
Liquid crystal indicator can be divided into by display mechanism: dynamic scattering mode (DS-LCD), twisted-nematic field effect mode (TN-LCD), supertwist nematic-mode (STN-LCD), electrically controlled birefringence mode (ECB-LCD) and guest-host effect pattern a plurality of types such as (HG-LCD).Wherein, As shown in Figure 2; The ECB of prior art (Electrically Controlled Birefringence; Abbreviation ECB) the mode liquid crystal panel comprises light transmission shaft (promptly the seeing through axle) mutually orthogonal of color membrane substrates, array base palte, first polaroid 1 and second polaroid, 9, the first polaroids 1 and second polaroid 9.Said color membrane substrates comprises first substrate 2 and is arranged on thecolored rete 3 and secondpublic electrode 11 on first substrate 2, and said secondpublic electrode 11 is arranged in the color membrane substrates side near liquid crystal layer; Said first polaroid 1 is arranged on the side away from liquid crystal layer; Said array base palte comprisessecond substrate 8 and is arranged on the tft array 7 and firstpublic electrode 6 onsecond substrate 8 that said firstpublic electrode 6 is arranged on the side near liquid crystal layer; Saidsecond polaroid 9 is arranged on the side away from liquid crystal layer.The ecb mode liquid crystal panel is generally normal white mode.In the course of work of liquid crystal panel; Under not alive situation, liquid crystal molecule is arranged in parallel along the surface of color membrane substrates and array base palte, and liquid crystal layer is equivalent to half-wave plate; Its phase-delay quantity is 1/2nd wavelength; By polarization direction half-twist after the light process liquid crystal layer of second polaroid, 9 incidents,, form bright attitude by 1 outgoing of first polaroid; Under the alive situation of electrode, the voltage swing that is applied between secondpublic electrode 11 and firstpublic electrode 6 through control forms vertical electric field, and the liquid crystal in the liquid crystal layer is deflected.The maximum deflection angle of liquid crystal is 90 °; Be that liquid crystal is by laterally being rotated into vertical state; This time through the time do not have birefringent phenomenon to take place, the phase place no change of liquid crystal (phase-delay quantity that is liquid crystal becomes 0 °), by the light of second polaroid, 9 incidents through liquid crystal layer and polarization state does not change; Can't pass through first polaroid 1, form dark attitude.In the ecb mode liquid crystal panel, under not alive state, liquid crystal efficient and light penetration are all higher; Under alive state; Because liquid crystal deflection fully; In order to realize the wide-angle deflection of liquid crystal, therefore the driving voltage that certainly will will add on the large electrode to be applied causes that higher, the dark attitude light leak of ecb mode liquid crystal panel driving voltage is serious, colour cast serious, the not high deficiency of contrast.
Along with development of technology, wide viewing angle technology has also appearred, i.e. fringe field switching technology (Fringe Field Switching is called for short FFS), FFS mode liquid crystal panel is generally normal black pattern.As shown in Figure 1, FFS mode liquid crystal panel comprises color membrane substrates, array base palte, first polaroid 1 and second polaroid 9.Said color membrane substrates comprises first substrate 2 and is arranged on thecolored rete 3 on first substrate 2; Said first polaroid 1 is arranged on the side of color membrane substrates away from liquid crystal layer; Said array base palte comprisessecond substrate 8 and is successively set on tft array 7 onsecond substrate 8, firstpublic electrode 6,insulation course 5 and data (data)electrode 4, and saiddata electrode 4 is near liquid crystal layer; Saidsecond polaroid 9 is arranged on the side away from liquid crystal layer.In the course of work of liquid crystal panel; Under not alive situation; Liquid crystal molecule is arranged in parallel along the surface of color membrane substrates and array base palte, and the phase-delay quantity of liquid crystal is 0 °, and polarization state does not change by the light process liquid crystal of second polaroid, 9 incidents; Directly absorbed, form dark attitude by first polaroid 1; Under alive situation; Thedata electrode 4 and the voltage swing between firstpublic electrode 6 that are applied between the interior pixel of same plane through control form the edge transverse electric field; Make liquid crystal under the influence of electrode edge transverse electric field; Plate face direction being parallel to this liquid crystal panel rotates skew, and therefore the deflection owing to liquid crystal forms certain phase difference at the electrode edge place, forms bright attitude.In the FFS mode liquid crystal panel, under not alive state, being oriented to laterally of liquid crystal, the liquid crystal panel visual angle is better, makes advantages such as visual angle broad (FFS mode liquid crystal panel is exactly to realize wide visual angle through dark attitude), the speed of liquid crystal indicator is fast; Under alive state; Because the electric field vertical component directly over the electrode is excessive; Cause non-uniform electric in the liquid crystal panel, cause the phase-delay quantity of the phase-delay quantity of the liquid crystal in the electric field directly over the electrode, therefore less than the liquid crystal in the electrode edge place electric field; FFS mode liquid crystal panel is located liquid crystal efficient and all lower problem of light penetration directly over having electrode for the ecb mode liquid crystal panel.At present generally solve the problems referred to above through the mode of optimizing electrode and the angle of liquid crystal, but facts have proved, the angle of optimizing electrode and liquid crystal can improve transmitance to a certain extent, but the while also makes the response time prolongation.
To sum up, though ecb mode liquid crystal panel of the prior art and FFS mode liquid crystal panel all have unique separately advantage,, the shortcoming that also exists some to be difficult to avoid respectively.
